407 Being Cursed
Huo Tian probed Si Huan to verify her guess. “Didn’t you always call my father Uncle Xi? Why did you suddenly change to Mr. Xi? Aren’t you being a little too distant with him?”
Si Huan said, “I called your father Uncle Xi previously to show respect and closeness, but now, I don’t think I can be as close to him as I was in the past. I can only barely maintain a little respect. If he really is like those cold-blooded and heartless family heads of other families who have authoritatively arranged a marriage agreement for you, then the last bit of respect I have for him will be gone!”
Although Si Huan’s voice was very calm, Huo Tian could still hear strong resentment in his words. She was not so depressed now and burst out laughing from Si Huan’s teasing. “Alright, maybe we have a misunderstanding. I’m not even angry at Dad, but you’re so angry.”
Probably because he was angered by this so-called marriage agreement, Si Huan no longer carefully maintained the friendship between the two of them on the surface. Instead, he bluntly expressed his intention to make advancements.
He said, almost confessing, “Of course I’m angry. If he really decides on a marriage agreement for you, it’ll ruin my happiness for the rest of my life. I’ll definitely turn against your father!”
This was not considered an implicit confession, but a direct confession. Huo Tian’s mind was in a mess and she forgot how to react. Her face turned red in an instant. If she were a cat, all the hair on her body would explode from shyness and shock!
“How, how did you…” Huo Tian’s heart was beating fast and she was talking incoherently. She didn’t know how to deal with this and simply started avoiding Si Huan’s direct attack.” Erm, the signal on my side is bad. I can’t hear what you’re saying. I’ll hang up first. ”
Si Huan listened to the beeping sound ing from the phone and smiled helplessly. However, his mood became happy again because of Huo Tian’s obvious shyness.
However, when he recalled the so-called marriage agreement Huo Tian mentioned just now, Si Huan’s mood sank to rock bottom again. He thought of his future father-in-law, who was very difficult to deal with, and his entire body was filled with the courage to fight against evil forces. He nimbly got up, tidied himself up, and drove to find Huo Tian, preparing to embark on the journey of resisting the authoritative old father together with the girl he loved.
The Hill Family had a few real estate properties in China, but they were all manors that took up a lot of land area and were purchased for investment. Other than that, they didn’t have any suitable residential properties.
Hence, Xi Cheng and Ding Rong stayed at home today. According to the property information the butler had gathered, they wanted to choose a suitable villa as their new address.
Xi Cheng only felt like he was snuggling up to his wife. Even something as boring as flipping through the real estate catalog had bee leisurely and fortable. However, as evening approached, this leisurely feeling was spoiled by Xi Cheng’s series of sneezes.
Ding Rong was a considerate woman. When she heard her husband sneezing repeatedly, her first reaction was that he was sick. Hence, she quickly said worriedly, “The temperature has suddenly dropped recently. Are you sick? Hurry up and call the doctor over to take a look.”
The Hill Family had a dedicated family doctor. The family doctor was summoned and quickly rushed to Xi Cheng’s side. After a series of tests, the doctor was also at a loss. “Sir’s health is very good. There’s no sign of him falling sick at all.”
Ding Rong frowned and asked in confusion, “But he sneezed several times this afternoon.”
As he spoke, Xi Cheng seemed to be confirming Ding Rong’s words and sneezed a few more times. Even the doctor was surprised.
This doctor was a plete foreigner, but he liked Chinese culture very much and knew a lot about Chinese folk remedies. At this moment, he was suddenly enlightened and said, “Mr. Hill, have you heard of that saying that if a person keeps sneezing, it’s because someone is thinking of you or scolding you. I think you’re suffering from intense cursing!”
